As evidenced by its rapid climb atop PC gaming platform Steam's charts, there is little doubt that "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)" is the world's fastest growing game right now. However, as in any game, a large player base also means a great number of cheaters, and "PUBG" is remaining vigilant, banning as many as 13,000 cheating accounts per day.

BattlEye, the anti-cheat software that polices the servers of "PUBG," went to Twitter to report numbers for the game. According to the team, 6,000 to 13,000 players are getting banned on a daily basis.

"We are currently banning at a rate of 6K-13K per day, nearly 20K within the last 24 hours alone," said BattlEye. "The vast majority is from China."

The team noted that majority of the cheating accounts are coming from China, which is also responsible for a huge chunk of the game's massive popularity. Furthermore, the team revealed that the total number of players banned from the game has doubled in only one month, and now totals over 300,000 accounts.

"Over 322,000 cheaters have been banned from PUBG so far, more than twice as many as posted by @PLAYERUNKNOWN just a month ago," said BattlEye.

The number of cheaters is only expected to increase, as the game continues to rise in popularity globally. Recently, the game broke 1.2 million concurrent players recorded by Valve's own "Defense of the Ancients 2" with 1.5 million online players.

Days later, it broke its own record and breached the two million mark. This week, the game peaked at just under 2.2 million players.

Currently, the game has sold over 16 million copies. This is a great achievement, considering that the game is still on its early access phase. The title is set to have its official PC launch before the end of the year. An Xbox One version is also currently being developed.
